Hey all!
I have been a lifelong griller and love cooking in cast iron. We are leading a low carb lifestyle, and so I figured more meat = smoker time!
Just this morning I purchased a Rec Teq 590. Looking forward to it's delivery, and to learning from all of you!

Oh--the user name? EK is my wife and I, and MN is where we live, and is currently below zero and falling fast. Ugh!

I participate in several forums for vehicles, but this is my first food forum. Can't wait to dive in!

LOW CARB guy from Georgia.... I am in "maintenance mode" Down to 179 pouds and the ONLY way I made it was knowing you can eat all the meat you want. I ate Pork Butt for breakfast for weeks........LOL..........Glad to have you on this forum. Charlie

Welcome from SE Arizona.
My wife is full-time Keto/low carb too.

Congrats on the RT-590.
There are a lot of Rec-Teq owners here on SMF, so you're in good company.

Welcome from Iowa! Glad you joined us! Yep, cold here also and we won't discuss wind chills! I'll admit, I'm not good at low carbs!

Welcome to SMF from another Minnesotan.

Another frozen MN poster here. Use my Pit Boss a lot in the winter. Hope you got the winter cover or go to Harbour freight/Northern tool and get a welding blanket to insulate that fancy new rig you have!

I've been reading a bit about that. Hoping that by the time it gets here, we are starting to get some warmer temps!

CONGRATS on the weight loss!
 
I picked up my pellets at Runnings
I thought they are a Minnesota area store, but discovered they go from Montana to Iowa and then New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
Bear Mountain is $7.99 / 20#
Lumberjack is $9.99 / 20#
Traeger is~ $18 / 20#

I've been watching for the HoE Lumberjack sale. Didn't realize they

That is a nice thought. Keep in mind though you'll probably need a cover next year too!!!

Hey. I was newbie about 8 years ago but have been out touch for a long time, but now I’m back. I got a Recteq RT-B380 Bullseye 3 weeks ago and I love it. Mine will cook from 180- 700+ degrees. This is great for me because I can low and slow all the way over 700 degrees to sear. Saving now for either a 590 or a 700 Bull. Good cooking and welcome.
